AfD nomination of Gregory Oswald Griffin
I have nominated Gregory Oswald Griffin, an article you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Articles for deletion/Gregory Oswald Griffin. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Your uploads
Good day. I see that you have uploaded a number of images to Wikipedia. First off, thank you for your contributions. Unfortunately, there are some guidelines that we need to follow with copyrighted images. Specifically, you need to add a source for the image (a link to a website will do), a copyright tag (there are some listed at WP:ICT), and a rationale explaining why we can use a copyrighted image (explained at WP:NFURG). I see that your images fail to include one of these. Please stop uploading images and address the concerns listed above. If you need assistance, you can ask at the help desk. If you do not fix these images, and you continue to make bad uploads, you will be blocked and your images will be deleted. Thanks for your contributions! STBotI (talk) 17:03, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

I need an experienced editor to review my resubmission of biography of Gregory Griffin. Thank you. Syholmes (talk) 21:58, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It reads like it was copied wholesale from something. It also needs a major overhaul with wiki markup. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Many otters • One hammer • HELP) 23:37, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Thank you Hammer for your response. With all due respect, the article does not exist anywhere. It is an original creation. Therefore, it was not copied wholesale but was written to fit within wikipedia's guidelines. Can you suggest needed changes that will result in publication here? I cannot figure out how to navigate wikipedia or how to get my biography published. I appreciate any and all help. Thank you. Syholmes (talk) 19:49, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
